<h1>Listing</h1>

<p>Abstract base element that captures the behavior common 
to lists and tables.</p>

<h3>Description</h3>

<p>The listing element is an abstract base element that 
captures the commonality between the List and Table element. Both elements 
support a data set, filtering, sorting, methods, and so on.</p>

<p>See the List and Table items for the specific visual 
differences between the two items.</p>

<h3>See Also</h3>

<p>The sort order for detail rows in the List.</p>

<h3>Description</h3>
